CNN Host Uses Notre Dame Fire To Attack… President Trump
by Shifra on April 16, 2019Remember when Don Lemon criticized Obama for trivializing the Paris murders of four Jewish men? Yeah, neither do I. In 2015, four men were gunned down at a kosher supermarket in Paris on a Friday afternoon, several hours before sundown. (Their photos are still up on my Twitter page). And when asked about it, Obama dismissively referred to the attack as a “random” shooting of ‘folks in a deli in Paris.’ It was anything but random. Two Islamic terrorists deliberately chose to attack the Hypercacher Supermarket on Friday afternoon, where they knew Jews would be doing their last-minute shopping before Shabbat (the Sabbath). Obama’s comments were roundly criticized by Jewish groups. And, to his credit, ABC’s Jonathan Karl called out...

Natalie Wood’s Death Now Classified As ‘Suspicious Death’
by Tammy on February 2, 2018In this age of being willing to examine how women are (badly) treated in Hollywood, perhaps we’ll finally get that town to admit what happened that night. I had the pleasure of meeting her briefly, at a party, a few weeks before her death. She was lovely and well liked by everyone. Her husband, not so much. Via Associated Press/NYT. New witnesses have emerged in the 1981 drowning of the actress Natalie Wood, prompting investigators to deem it a “suspicious death” and name Robert Wagner, her former husband, a “person of interest,” Los Angeles County sheriff’s officials said on Thursday.

Titanic Captain Was Warned Before Voyage – But Not About Icebergs
by Tammy on April 15, 2016Ooh! Via The Guardian. The captain of the Titanic had more than icebergs to contend with on the ill-fated voyage that ended 104 years ago on Friday, a document has revealed. A report was handed to Capt Edward Smith before the ship left Southampton for its maiden voyage to New York on 10 April 1912, warning him of the presence of a mast of a submerged wreck in the Atlantic. The scrunched-up piece of paper was handed back to the messenger as it was not on the ship when it sank after hitting an iceberg, resulting in the deaths of more than 1,500 people. The note ended up in the offices of the solicitors hired to represent White Star Line,...

State Dept. Finally Acknowledges Murder Of American Jewish Teen Ezra Schwartz
by Shifra on November 23, 2015Ezra with his siblings Eighteen year old Ezra Schwartz, of Sharon, Massachusetts, was spending the year in Israel, pursuing his studies. He was planning to enter Rutgers University next year. Last Thursday, Ezra was shot and killed in a ‘Palestinian’ terrorist attack. Initial reaction from the State Dept.? None. After American Jewish groups expressed outrage that there was no mention of the murder of an American citizen, the State Dept. did acknowledge Ezra’s death. But, in an outrageous display of moral equivalence, the State Department press release added that Israel, as well as the terrorists, need to “reduce tensions.” Statement from The Conference of Presidents of Major American Jewish Organizations: Via Algemeiner: Conference of Presidents leaders Stephen. M. Greenberg, Chairman,...

Israel Defense & Ukraine Plane Crash Updates/Open Thread
by Tammy on July 17, 2014Talk about an intense day, and it’s not even close to being over. First, the horrible news about the Malaysian airliner being shot down over Ukraine. Much of the initial information is speculation, but one thing that has been confirmed is that it was shot down with a missile. Now the work begins to pinpoint the location of battery and perhaps that will give us information as to who did this. And, of course, the embarrassment here is that Obama, once again, exhibited how much of a fool he really is. We have 295 lost souls, and 23 dead Americans in this horrific act. He stepped awat from a photo op at a burger joint, then spent 38 seconds addressing...

Holocaust Remembrance Day: The Christian Who Saved 1000s of Jews
by Shifra on April 26, 2014**Bumped up from two years ago. Yom HaShoah — Holocaust Remembrance Day — falls on the 27th of the Hebrew month of Nisan – Sunday, April 27, this year** Holocaust Remembrance Day In the early 1940’s, my father was a rabbi in the Bronx, NYC. His salary was twenty dollars a week. One day, he received a phone call. It was urgent, the man said. A matter of life and death. It was about the Jews in Europe. The following Saturday morning, the man spoke to the congregation. He had “inside” information. The Nazis were planning to exterminate the Jews. The “relocation camps” were really death camps. Gas chambers. Gold extracted from the teeth of the dead, their body fat...

by Tammy on January 29, 2014Sad but yum. Via Los Angeles Times.

Divisions Among Republicans Stalling Formation of Benghazi Select Committee
by Tammy on March 5, 2013Pathetic. Via Breitbart. Top Republicans with classified information about the terrorist assault on the U.S. mission in Benghazi last September may not want to see a House Select Committee formed to investigate the attack that left four Americans dead, including U.S. ambassador Chris Stevens, although a number of Senate and House Republicans remain unsatisfied with information they have received from the Obama administration about the deadly attack. Congressman Frank Wolf (R-VA), a subcommittee chairman on the House Appropriations Committee, has re -filed a resolution to form such a select committee. Only Speaker John Boehner can allow the formation of a House Select Committee. Other Republicans were unsure of their support for a select committee. “You know, I don’t think so....

Krauthammer On School Shooting: “This Is The Problem Of Evil And It’s Been Struggled With Forever”
by Tammy on December 16, 2012Excellent, but brief, conservation from from Bret’s Special Report. I found Krauthammer’s comments the most cogent, and he also also comments about what to say to your kids. while disagreeing the most with Kirsten Powers. Overall, a comprehensive discussion on the issue (focusing on the psychology of the issue) with good points. This whole conservation, however, about our “culture of violence” I find shallow. This is the world’s condemnation of us, and yet nothing is said, and even we pander to, and actual culture of violence in the Islamist world, where school girls are targeted on a daily basis. Yet, there is no general condemnation of that, not does the misogyny and child abuse of the Arab world ever make...

CIA operators were denied request for help during attack; Hillary Asked for more security in Benghazi, Obama refused
by Tammy on October 26, 2012Horrible news confirming politics, i.e., Obama’s concern for his career, almost certainly played a role in the deaths of our four Americans.

Pakistani Schoolgirl Hero Shot by Taliban, Out of That Cesspool, Now in London
by Tammy on October 15, 2012Since the attack happened it’s been clear that girl needed to be out of that dump. Now she is, but London is also full of Islamist savages. In my humble opinion, the best place for her is here but this is a good first step. In the picture with the article you can see the kind of security she has. Glad England is taking this seriously. Pakistani girl shot by Taliban lands in U.K. A teenage Pakistani activist shot in the head by the Taliban arrived in the United Kingdom on Monday for more specialized medical care and to protect her from follow-up attacks threatened by the militants.

Stevens, Doherty, Woods, and Smith *A Post From Patricia* This administration is directly responsible for the death of four diplomats and border agent Brian Terry.
